In the end, a large percentage of people's beliefs in engine maintenance is stuff you've grown up with, anecdotal evidence and corner-garage voodoo. My assertions will annoy lots of you because "a large engine shop in Seattle told me to do it this way" contradicts what I'm saying. Taking the time to post this stuff provides some information to add to your pile but basically, do anything you want to your engine, just don't throw the flush water in the ocean.

Happy Thanksgiving!
I don't think anybody was advocating running long term with no coolant.

And happy thanksgiving to you too!
